Based on the search results, the expected cutoff for NIT Trichy for B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in 2024 is projected to be between 1499-1504 for other state candidates. For home state candidates, the cutoff is generally lower, around 1196-4178 in Round 1

Given your JEE Main Paper 2 score of 88%, NATA score of 137, and 95% in boards, you may have a competitive chance, but it ultimately depends on the final cutoffs and the number of applicants. Regularly check the official NIT Trichy website for the most accurate and updated information.

The Production Engineering branch is a great option to consider at NIT Jalandhar, NIT Calicut, and NIT Kurukshetra.

At NIT Calicut, the Production Engineering program is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in mathematics, science, and engineering fundamentals. The program focuses on developing students' skills in areas like manufacturing systems, quality control, and supply chain management. With a sanctioned intake of 59 students, the program offers a great student-faculty ratio, allowing for personalized attention and mentorship.

Similarly, at NIT Jalandhar, the Industrial and Production Engineering program is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in the industry. The program covers a wide range of topics, including manufacturing processes, production planning, and control systems.

NIT Kurukshetra also offers a strong Production Engineering program, with a focus on developing students' skills in areas like manufacturing technology, industrial engineering, and quality control

Considering these options over a tier 2 college is a great idea. NITs are reputable institutions that offer high-quality education, excellent faculty, and great placement opportunities. While tier 2 colleges may also offer good programs, the NITs have a distinct advantage when it comes to reputation, faculty quality, and placement records. So, if you have the opportunity to join any of these NITs, it's definitely worth considering.

Hi

hope you are doing well

While having a JEE rank of 20,000 OBC rank and falling under the girls quota, you have a reasonable chance of securing a seat in some NITs, particularly in branches with lower cutoffs.

some NIT's you can check:

• NIT Nagaland
• NIT Mizoram
• NIT Manipur
• NIT Sikkim
• NIT Arunachal Pradesh
• NIT Meghalaya
• NIT Srinagar

Your chances may improve if you're willing to consider less sought-after branches like Civil, Environmental, or Bioengineering.

Make sure to choose wisely in counselling process, stay updated and keep an eye on Josaa official website.
